Comparing USC’s 2024 Big Ten football schedule to the Michigan Wolverines

USC and Michigan will soon be conference competitors. When USC moves to the Big Ten, it will be a completely different ballgame for the Trojans and Wolverines. Let’s compare USC’s and Michigan’s schedules, shall we?

Isaiah Hole and his team at Wolverines Wire now know which Big Ten teams they will face. They also know when they will play USC and UCLA for the first time in a Big Ten Conference game.

“We now know who Michigan football will play and there are some interesting matchups when it comes to the conference schedule. Per usual, the Wolverines will play nine conference games, including rivals Michigan State and Ohio State. The maize and blue will also face both USC and UCLA in year one of the new-look conference, though they will play neither the following year,” Hole wrote.

In 2024, Michigan plays these nine Big Ten teams: Ohio State, Illinois, Rutgers, UCLA, Wisconsin, Minnesota, Michigan State, Maryland, and USC.

All in all, neither team has a huge schedule advantage, but the one notable advantage USC has in 2024 is that it doesn’t play Ohio State. Michigan does.
